Open Letter to Twitter Dear Twitter and Twitter Community, Whether or not we actively use Twitter, living in a connected world means that the platform has a direct impact on each and every one of our lives. Twitter is no longer just a company — it has become a medium for our information, one that gracefully allows the expression our opinions. However, we have begun to see examples of malicious activity on the platform with an intent to create a divide between Americans and promote instability in our society. We believe that keeping the integrity of Twitter is incredibly important. Those who influence the conversations on the platform influence the topics of conversation in our daily life. Our hope is that the technology that we create can be helpful to individuals take proactive action about the information they read, but we believe that the responsibility to moderate malicious automated content on Twitter falls onTwitter — not the users. We feel that this is a problem that has led to the recent political discourse threatening the peace and harmony within our nation. We want to extend our help in any way that is needed. Sincerely, Ash Bhat, Rohan Phadte, and the team @ Robhat Labs https://medium.com/@robhat/an-analysis-of-propaganda-bots-on-twitter-7b7ec57256ae https://botcheck.me/
